    Default Interesting Interview

    http://www.cnn.com/2008/LIVING/12/02...oto/index.html

    I thought this was an interesting article. It's an interview with one of the children in the Migrant woman photo by Dorothea Lange during the depression. Just an interesting, historical read.

    I think if I read a story like this everyday, I would complain less. I am grateful for what I have today!

    Oh wow I really loved that. Thanks for sharing. I think of the adults that came out of the Depression and the sacrifices they made for their babies and I am just so humbled.
